Peony Love
My chemistry works with all the notes listed here very comfortably. At first spray the bergamot, grapefruit, and violet just splash on so deliciously I just want to bury my nose in my arm and keep it there permanently. I get waft after beautiful waft of richly succulent, fresh-fruity-floral violet delight! The magnificent peony then raises her proud blossom like a trumpet and announces herself like a radiant medieval queen on promenade waving a silk hankie in the bright sunlight. There is a lovely lingering, clean-sweetness here, but not enough to drown the initial succulence of the opening, and not enough to take this to the excess horror of a gourmand. The drydown is an elegantly cozy delight of woody-iris sensuality. This is so far my favorite of the Aqua Allegoria line and wonderfully well blended. It loves my skin and I love it! I'm heartbroken it's discontinued.
